Bill Clinton was famous for the creative way he kept score.

LOL. Not a bad line.

Obama always wins anyway. Otherwise he throws a tantrum and his caretakers get real frustrated like.

The more time he spends golfing, the less time he has to destroy America.

“Not the one you want to be behind.”

Talking about BHO, not Clinton.

Nice of him to spend so much of his vacation w/his family. What a jerk, they sit at home while he spends 6-7 hrs playing by himself. What’s there for kids to do at Marxist Vineyard?

Pray for America and Our Troops

Good point.
Anybody know how many hundreds of Sec Serv agents it takes to secure an 18 hole golf course?

Agreed. I’d be thrilled for him to play two rounds a day for the next 3 1/2 years.

I didn’t read this past the beginning paragraphs because I dislike O and find golf boring.

Trash talking? Do they explain that line? I’m afraid to look and don’t have time to read a lengthy NYT article. Can someone with more patience than I just post the answer?

Golf is his leisure pursuit. Destroying this country is his active pursuit.

"Mr. Obama “doesn’t fudge his scores,” Mr. Van Natta said, adding: “If he shoots an 11 on a hole, he will write down 11."

Might be the ONLY time he doesn't lie!

A lot of time hunting for balls in the woods.

The Press Core calls him the Duffer in Chief when he “golfs” (I would say hack, but he IS a hack).
